GPS Fixed - Thanks for the help
So the GPS problem is old hat on the Mogul. I installed iNav 2009, and it runs fine, but shows no GPS data, it appears not to be receiving any. I installed franson GPS gate which I used on my old mogul, and that worked ok, I would just have to soft reset prior to any time I wanted to use GPS. GPS Gate says GPS data coming in, and it shows when the iNav client is connected to it, but I am getting nothing from iNav. Please help (again).
I am downloading the tinkerbell toolset to see what I can find in there. If I figure it out myself I will certainly report back. I have finished reading each of the toolset instructions and steps are: relock, install old rom/radio, unlock, install new radio, install custom rom. Tinkerbell can you help this noob understand? I believe I have the newest radio (3.42.50) so I'm not understanding how locking, installing the old rom/radio, unlocking, installing new radio (which I seem to have), installing new rom makes my phone act different than it does now. Hopefully there's an answer, otherwise I will just follow the instructions "just because". I ran through tinkerbell's complete toolset (lock, vzw rom, unlock, new radio, tink rom) and it worked. I will continue the discussion of her rom in her rom thread. http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/titan-deve...-metropcs.html |

That being said, I am not certain how much time it is going to take for you to get a lock without a data connection. I am going to guess about 20 to 30 minutes. If you can get data on your phone through wireless, usb, or over the air, you can get a GPS lock in under a minute. GPS is one of my absolute favorite things about this device!! Let us know how it is going there!! |

Screw it, I am running through the steps...PS I hate using the usb method, nothin but bad luck, am on step 2 via micro SD |
Re: Cannot GPS - Please help
Sounds good! If you run into any challenges with the SD method, you can always use the USB method. I use the USB method here about 95% of the time.
You are halfway there!! Nice effort!! |

P.S. I do all this WITHOUT any backup support, so when I re-rom I have to manually install every program...which is about 20+ applications |
Re: Cannot GPS - Please help
Wow!! I included PIM Backup to ease the burden of flashing a new Rom. Give it a shot next time... it will make your life easier!!

Re: Cannot GPS - Please help
If you put your 20+ applications in the Root of your SD card, the Tinkerbell Rom will install them for you... just a thought to make your life a bit easier!
